The Pelly Crossing Travel Guide

Selkirk First Nation territory at the heart of the Klondike Highway

Pelly Crossing is a small community of Selkirk First Nation people on the Pelly River, 267 kilometres north of Whitehorse on the Klondike Highway. Most travellers pass through without stopping. Those who do stop find a community with deep roots in the land, excellent fishing on the Pelly River, and a genuine welcome from one of the Yukon's self-governing First Nations.
